Variety: Futuristic New Arena Concept MSG Sphere Unveiled by James Dolan in New York Presentation

“In a futuristic presentation at Radio City Music Hall on Thursday evening, Madison Square Garden Company chief James Dolan unveiled MSG Sphere, a vision of a technologically enhanced arena of the future. In a presentation for investors and reporters that utilized nearly all of Radio City’s stage and towering ceiling and recalled astronomy exhibits at science museums, Dolan said, “No longer is the venue a place to spectate. It’s a place to go and participate.” The screen filled with renderings of spherical venues placed in the cityscapes of Las Vegas and London — where the first two such arenas are scheduled to open beginning in 2020. The company expects to break ground on the 18,500-capacity Vegas venue later this year.”
